I have tried and tried and cannot for the life of me figure out how to import a playlist to the HDD of my 228i with Tech package. I've created .m3u playlists through itunes and opened them in notepad and adjusted the directories to match thee USB thumb drive which enables the iDrive to recognize and use the playlists on the thumb drive. However, when I import the usb drive to the iDrive HDD, the playlists don't show up.

To add to the frustration, I've downloaded a couple CD's that came with playlists that transfer to the HDD just fine, so I know that it's possible. Even this though is confusing, since it doesn't appear to be the .m3u playlists of the CD folder that is transferring over to the HDD, indicated by the fact that the iDrive HDD playlist title is different from the .m3u playlist file on the usb stick.

Anyone have any insight into this? I've searched this and other forums/sites to no avail. The owner's manual doesn't seem to be any help either.

Thanks for the help!
